An accomplished attorney, Donald Vish is capturing the heart of Louisville through another profession much different from his day job.
Though busy teaching at the University of Louisville Louis D. Brandeis School of Law in addition to his practice and philanthropy work, Vish will spend the next year photographing nature as part of a project which will furnish Norton Women's Hospital and Kosair Children's Hospital – St. Matthews. Research demonstrates gardens or images with trees, water and greenery keep medical patients at ease and can even lessen the need for pain medication.
On July 1, Vish began snapping photos of nature in 37 parks and neighborhoods in the city, including Beckley Creek Park, Chickasaw Park and Joe Creason Park. "These are places that are maintained by the Louisville Metro Department of Parks, open and available to the public without charge. We want people to know there's nothing isolated about these places.â€
Three-and-half months into the project, the finished product will feature 100 photos hanging in the hallways, nursing stations and patient rooms of the hospital. The Voice-Tribune caught up with Vish to learn more about his passion behind the lens and what inspired him to become involved with healing through photography.
–Ashley Anderson, Staff Writer
How did the project with Norton Women's Hospital and Kosair Children's Hospital – St. Matthews come about?
Lynnie Meyer, who runs the Norton Hospital Foundation, was aware of my work in philanthropy because we both work in foundations. She was aware of my work in photography and its use in philanthropy, and she was aware of my interest in photography to do more than simply copy that which nature has provided. I think she thought this would be a good project to team up with me on. She asked me for my thoughts about it and I said let's look for pictures that help people in the capacity to heal; tie our neighborhoods together actually and metaphorically.
Do you have a professional background in photography?
Yes, I do. I was, for example, the official photographer for Mayor Fischer's inauguration. I have a permanent exhibit of photography at the law firm at Middleton Reutlinger and I have a history of photography for social causes. For six years, I worked with the children with St. George's Community Center in the inner city teaching them photography as a life skill as much as an artistic skill. … Photography is my passion. Even though I have been paid for my photography, I am an amateur in spirit, which means I do it out of love and passion.
Where have you taken photos for the hospital's photography project?
So far I have been in 37 parks. I'm looking for pictures with nature that heal; pictures that soothe. … I like to say that I'm not really making pictures, I'm making windows. … Looking for beauty. Looking for universal images. … No doubt, from time to time, the viewer of these pictures will recognize a particular place, but with the exception of a few bridges, there are no handmade or human-made improvements in my picture. We prefer the color green. We like to show lots of light.
How did you choose which elements to focus on in each photo?
I have studied the scientific reports regarding the healing attributes of gardens in hospitals and also a report … on how pictures of gardens have helped people convalesce. Those studies have helped me learn certain things about pictures that appeal to people in a hospital and my photographer's eye is attuned to those things: light and sky and green and open spaces. Joyous colors.
Why did you become interested in studying the medical benefits of hospital gardens and photos of nature?
I recognized the ability of photography to have an impact in social causes. For example, a couple pictures I took for C.A.S.A. (Court Appointed Special Advocates) won some awards because they had the ability to move people to action. I've always been interested in the ability of art and photography to actually have an impact on people.
A gas sublimation printing process will be used with the photos. Why is that?
First of all, the pictures will be made on metal and the pictures will be infused into the pores of the metal. The process by which they are transferred and infused into the metal is called gas sublimation and this process is able to read and reproduce the photograph with a wider color gamut and more sharpness and more luminescence than other printing techniques. I have said that it makes fine art finer.
How would you describe the feeling nature gives you?
Joyous – in one word. Absolutely joyous. I am mesmerized; I am enraptured by the magnificence of nature. One person who went out on a shoot with me one time said it is amazing every time I put the camera at my eye, and as long as the camera's at my eye, I'm smiling.

Welcome to Barnoldswick
Set in stunning scenery, the friendly market town of Barnoldswick - known affectionately to locals as Barlick - lies at the very heart of England. The town is quaint, quirky, colourful; above all Barnoldswick is friendly, warm and welcoming, full of character - and characters!
Nestling in the Pennine hills between Leeds and Manchester on the Lancashire / Yorkshire border, Barnoldswick is one hour's travel from either city. Barnoldswick is where Bronte Country meets the Yorkshire Dales, Pendle Hill and the Forest of Bowland.
Pennine cycle and bridleway routes pass through Barnoldswick and the superb summit stretch of the Leeds & Liverpool canal meanders through the town. Barnoldswick has wonderful walking countryside.

Okay so if someone wants to slap me at any time go right ahead. Not sure if this is all real but its happening!! Somehow everything got pushed up a month. So instead of starting in December we are now starting in November!
*taking a deep breath*
How did this all start, you ask?! Well we decided that due to some conflicts in January/Feb with our schedule I called the doctor and asked if we could move up earlier or possibly start my period earlier. Well after some time I got a call this morning from my lovely nurse Idea and she explained to me that our doctor does not like the idea of starting periods with pills due to lining and ovulation issues...fine with me (at least he is watching out for us). She then said that the doctor looked over everything and sees no problem in starting early. At first I was in shock...
Called my wife and explained the situation. She couldn't believe it either. She kept asking me the same questions over and over which tells me she is taking it all in, lol. So here is the scoop y'all!
*I start my period in about a week or two. I call on the first day of my period. On the second day I go in for some blood testing and then do a lupron test and then come back in 16 hours later for another blood test. After that I sit and wait for the results and in the mean time I start taking good ole' birth control pills (AKA Bitch Possessing Pills)!! I then come in a couple days later after being on BCP's and have a saline sonogram (AKA I need more than over the counter Tylenol and a pole to hold onto for pain). After all that is taken care of and I pass with flying colors I graduate and TADA....we can start stims and it looks like a retireval/transfer by the middle of December! So yes possibly the best Christmas present ever!
*Not going to think about it.....not going to think about it.*
I know everything will go the way it is supposed to go and frankly we are so carefree about this entire IVF #2
Ready to get this train rolling!

My lovely orchid
Everything lately has just been blissful. Life is great...We have a wonderful life together. I simply couldn't imagine my life any other way. Plain and simple. This weekend we spent together going to the pumpkin patch and picking our annual carving pumpkins. We carved our pumpkins late Saturday evening and while they didn't come out as great as we wanted, LOL it was sure fun! This entire weekend brought visions in my head of what our future holds for us. I can't even began to tell you how excited I am to make memories and carving pumpkins with our kids. I know we will be the best parents we can possible be and that for me is priceless.

Just Awesome
This totally made me laugh out loud!! I so needed that laugh. I really feel like ever since we have been TTC everyone has been popping over pregnant....while we sit here and wait for our chance. I have no doubt in my mind that it will happen it the dreaded waiting part sucks. Everyone around me keeps talking about this upcoming IVF cycle. Frankly, I have really stepped out of the TTC box and have forgotten that in a matter of months we will be thrown at this full speed. Maybe, im trying to hide my emotions or maybe not think to much about it.
My boss the other day asked me how long I plan on being on maternity leave...I think shes freaking out. I simply stated that I need to get pregnant first then we can talk about maternity leave, lol. Everyone keeps telling me that they can feel it this time. She even said she didn't feel good about the first one. Ugh, I wish someone would have stopped us before we wasted our time and efforts. Oh well. no pity party over here, and then yesterday my very close co-worker Kathy told me she was going to throw us a baby shower. She explained that she cannot wait to spoil our children. I do know for a fact that our baby(s) will be showered in love and I frankly have no doubt in my mind that everything will work the way it is supposed to...again its just the waiting part that sucks.
The other day my coworker and I went to lunch. We ordered and sat down. I couldn't help but notice every baby or child in the place. Was it really that noticeable?! Yeah. Kathy even pointed it out that she notices when I see a child...she simply said I smile and then shrug. I love seeing children and frankly they are all around us. I love seeing babies wrapped in their blankets and looking so snugly and comfy. They are so precious. I can't wait to do all the things both Sarah and I have talked about for years. All the traditions we want to start. Our special memories. Our family.
My period should be coming soon and this only means I start getting ready for my wonderful saline ultrasound. I will this time not take the advice of Tylenol a couple hours before...maybe something stronger, LOL! This is my favorite time of year, honestly and I love that we are doing our IVF during this time!!
Till next time!

Wiping the slate clean
Today was our very first appointment with our new IVF doctor. I was super nervous this morning I guess you could say that these past two years has traumatized us to say the least. We drove the hour ride to the new doctor and walked right in. We were so excited to finally be there. We were greeted by everyone. I have been talking back and forth with this new clinic we were both so happy to finally put voices to the faces. Within five minutes the front staff was coming up to us and hand shaking us and one that I have been coordinating with in particular came to the waiting room and hugged both Sarah and I. I started crying. I couldn't help it! I was just so happy to be there and thankful for all the help she had helped us with. We waited another five minutes and then we were greeted by the doctor himself! Right then and there we were blown away! He took us to the back and sat in an office. We were with him for literally an hour just talking about everything.

My heart is beating fast, and my hands feel like clams
I can't even began to tell you the emotions I am feeling at the moment. I told myself I wasn't going to act any different this time around. I wanted to go into this next IVF like it was nothing....just another appointment, but now the past couple of days my body has been feeling an extent of emotions! I have been feeling.....excited, happy, nervous, scared, blessed and lucky. This is the same feeling I felt when I had a big school presentation. I feel like I am going to give a big speech in front thousands of people. My heart is racing, so fast. "Breathe Lexi, breathe". I am ready to get this going, I am ready to be parents. I know it will all pan out the way we want it, its the waiting part that's killer.

SummaryBy Terry Kirkpatrick
ROI 2002: How Do CIOs Figure ROI?
Most of the 404 top IT executives in our survey feel greater pressure than ever before to demonstrate a return on their IT investments. But there's no agreed-upon approach to calculating ROI. Worse, 70 percent believe their metrics don't fully capture the value of IT, and nearly half lack confidence in their ability to accurately calculate ROI. But IT executives who are more confident in their ROI methods also claim better returns on their IT investments, and they measure ROI more frequently and supplement commonplace ROI approaches with more sophisticated measures.
Six out of 10 IT executives say the pressure to calculate ROI is on the rise, while only 2 percent say it's decreasing.
There's no gold standard yet for calculating the value of IT. Seventy-seven percent of respondents cite cost reduction as one of their ROI methods; no other method was cited by more than 60% of respondents.
At 46%, nearly half of respondents are somewhat or not at all confident that the methods they're using are accurate.
For the IT investments we measured, 75% of respondents who do have confidence obtained the returns they expected or better. Only 56% of respondents with little or no confidence in their ROI methods made the same claim.
Those with confidence are also more likely to use more sophisticated ROI estimating techniques, and tend to find it easier to assess the ROI of various technology initiatives.
Oftentimes, the really important things are the hardest to measure.
"I spend more time on the intangibles than the tangibles," says Christopher Graham, vice president and CIO at the Church Mutual Insurance Co. in Merrill, Wis., of ROI measurement. "It's skewed about 60 percent intangible now and leaning more that way every day, because of the customer-service issues."
Like most insurance companies, Church Mutual is paper-heavy. Graham is determined to scan as much of this paper into electronic form as he can. The conversion will cost $1 million, but how will he know it's worth it? Some of the calculation will be easy. "What's it going to really save?" he asks. "Floor space? Paper? Paper storage costs? I can put numbers on these. But then you get into the intangible sidenow I can have more than one person look at a document at the same time at any of our locations. This improves decision-making, communications and relationships with customers." Graham adds that he can take those same documents and attach them to the Web site so his customers can have some self-help optionsthey can print out a document and mail it in, for example. "But how do you put a dollar value on that?" he asks.
The CIOs who participated in our survey know this dilemma well. Seventy percent of the respondents, for instance, believe that monetary or business metrics don't fully capture the value of major IT projects. And 59 percent believe that non-IT executives don't place enough value on the intangible benefits of IT investments. All of this might not have mattered as much a few years ago, when budgets were less restrained, but 60 percent of our respondents say the pressure to prove ROI has increased in the past 12 months.
"There's been a real resurgence of interest in the whole value issue, of which ROI is a part, because people are being pressured to reduce their budgets and make sure they're working on things of highest value to the organization," says Mary Silva Doctor, principal consultant at Omega Point Consulting LLC, an IT management consulting firm based in Bensalem, Pa. "What we don't see, however, is just a focus on ROIit's done in the context of contribution to strategic objectives. If a company has a well-articulated business strategy, you can usually distill that into a handful of drivers and ask, 'How does this project contribute?'" The survey bears this out: 51 percent of all companies and 62 percent of companies with more than 1,000 employees measure strategic value to determine the benefits of an IT investment.
Under the gun now, CIOs are questioning what they thought they knew about ROI. "I'm having a hard time defining what ROI is anymore," Graham says. "It used to be looking at a payback from a monetary standpoint. Today, other things have to be taken into considerationwill it be good for morale, increase the knowledge base of workers, facilitate better decision-making, improve communications, help with customer relations?"
Dr. Howard Rubin, executive vice president at Meta Group Inc. in Stamford, Conn., acknowledges the new complexity. "We're in a world where IT systems are now affecting things like relationships, and the results that show up are unstructured and intangible," he says. It's a cause-and-effect problem, Rubin adds: You know a new tool makes the sales force more effective, but showing its connection to higher sales and then to the bottom line is difficult.
It was thus no surprise to Rubin that nearly 46 percent of our respondents were either "not at all" or only "somewhat" confident in the accuracy of their ROI techniques. "Information systems today are more complicated, there are more intangibles, and it all flies in the face of computing ROI. That's the paradox of 2002: The pressure is on ROI just at the point where you can't define what it is. It's very hard to measure," he says.
All of the CIOs we spoke with were wrestling with how to link ROI to customer issues. Establishing that link is one of the challenges of CRM; 62 percent of our respondents consider ROI and other measurements of CRM initiatives to be difficult or somewhat difficult. The Sedona Group, a staffing firm based in Moline, Ill., has several sets of customersthe licensee staffing agencies across the country and the companies for whom they supply temporary workers. "When we try to do an ROI analysis on initiatives that would generate analyses or reports for these companies, some of it gets into gray areas," says CIO David Buzzell. "We can produce a new report, but what's the net gain? That's really hard to measure."
It's easier, he says, when it's a matter of customer retention, such as the time a firm using temporary workers supplied by Sedona wanted daily payroll figures by 10 a.m. "Basically, the client said 'If you can't do it, we're going to find a different vendor.' It's much easier to analyze the dollar value in this case."
In less obvious areas, though, it's also possible to take the measure of customer initiatives. "CRM is difficult for the same reason ERP was difficult: People have a belief that it's going to solve a variety of problems, and they're not necessarily focused on what the key questions are," says Sunil Subbakrishna, a vice president at Mercer Management Consulting Inc. "If your key issue is improving cross-sell rates, then you need to have a vision in mind for how you're going to do it and how CRM is going to help you. What items will cross-sell, and how are salespeople going to change their behavior?"
If quantitative measures aren't there, he says, companies can "at least try to describe in more detail what the qualitative results are going to be." Precise numbers are not as critical as taking into account such things as retraining your people, the capacity of employees to absorb a new process, the value of a project relative to other possible projects, and the risks of untried technologies, changes in the market and assumptions about how customers will react.
Then, Subbakrishna suggests, do scenariosbest outcome imaginable, expected outcome and the worst. "Evaluate those, and if you start falling toward the worst case you may want to stop the project."
At Church Mutual, Graham engages in a form of this, which he calls "outcome analysis planning." "If [a certain situation] happens, what are some possible outcomes?" he asks. His electronic file initiative will bring easily measurable process improvements. For example, the company can reduce claims adjusting expenses, which is significant: According to Graham, a quarter-point reduction saves the company $500,000. But the real value, he adds, will be in making better decisions.
"Some of the outcomes you can put a hard dollar amount on," he says, "and some you can't. So a lot of our decision-making deals with 'it's the right thing to do.' You get the consensus of the management team and you go for it."
Research Results
Research Results
The results are available in Adobe Acrobat PDF format. To download the free Adobe Acrobat Reader plug-in, click here.
Conclusion 01
Conclusion 01: Confidence
Confidence in their ROI metrics is strongly connected to whether executives regularly measure ROI. Without taking confidence into account, IT executives vary widely on what percentage of their budgets they evaluate using ROI, at which point during projects they estimate and measure ROI, and how long they are willing to wait for projects to provide a return.
Less confident IT executives calculate ROI for half or more of their budgets only 27% of the time, while more confident execs do so twice as often. Confident execs measure every IT investment 45% of the time versus 28% for less confident ones, and as part of strategic business initiatives 49% of the time versus 29%. These are strong signs that regular usage is linked to confidence.
Nine of 10 respondents estimate ROI when initially justifying an IT investment, but only 13% estimate ROI before a project is completed. That suggests that few IT execs readjust initial projections throughout projects.
Fifty-seven percent of it execs with more confidence in their ROI metrics measure the actual ROI of initiatives on an ongoing basis, as opposed to 32% of less confident respondents.
Conclusion 02
Conclusion 02: Methods
CIOs use a wide assortment of ROI methods, but measuring cost reduction is by far the most popular. Even so, there's no sign that any single method works well for all organizations and situations. However, IT execs who supplement traditional metrics with more sophisticated ones tend to have more confidence in their measures.
Cost reduction is the most commonly used ROI method, at 77%, followed by customer satisfaction, at 57%, and productivity improvement, at 56%. At 55%, IT's impact on profits and earnings is a more commonly used ROI metric than revenue gains, at 36%.
There are few differences between more and less confident execs in the use of traditional metrics such as customer satisfaction. However, execs with confidence are more likely to supplement traditional methods with such sophisticated measures as economic value added (43%), activity-based costing (44%) and internal rate of return (42%).
Just 59% of respondents believe they're using the right approach to assess IT's business value. But even the more confident execs have doubts: fully 54% of them feel their metrics aren't complete.
Seventy percent of more confident execs measure the benefits IT brings to the company's strategic goals, versus just 39% of less confident execs.
Conclusion 03
Conclusion 03: Involvement
How it's done, not who does it, is what counts when measuring ROI: There's no correlation between confidence in the numbers and who creates or evaluates them. Senior IT executives are the most frequently involved in measuring ROI, followed by senior business executives and the finance staff. The executives most CIOs report toCEOs and CFOsare the ones who most regularly review the numbers. Yet almost 60% of IT execs believe their non-IT colleagues do not appreciate the intangible benefits of IT.
Eighty-five percent of respondents report that senior IT executives are involved in measuring the business value of IT investments, with top business execs, at 59% and the finance group, at 49%. Organizations diverge most by size when involving mid-level IT managers: 51% of large organizations bring them in, but only 24% of smaller ones do.
Top executives are regularly involved in reviewing ROI figures before making IT investments. The CFO reviews IT investments before they are approved at 68% of companies, and the CEO reviews them, at 56%.
Fifty-one percent of respondents who have confidence in their ROI metrics believe non-IT executives place too little value on the intangible benefits of IT. That figure rises to 69% for res-pondents with little or no confidence.
Conclusion 04
Conclusion 04: Results
Intranets delivered the best ROI, while e-commerce and outsourcing disappointed most often. But across the board, IT executives with confidence in their ROI metrics reported less difficulty in determining ROI on different kinds of IT spending, even IT infrastructure, a notoriously tricky one.
Intranets met or exceeded the ROI expectations of 80% of respondents, followed by security, at 75%. The greatest disappointments were e-commerce, which fell below the ROI expectations of 33% of respondents, and outsourcing, at 32%. However, especially in technology investment arenas such as ERP, outsourcing and intranets, more confident execs more frequently reported favorable results than respondents with doubts about their ROI methods.
Confident execs regularly found it easier to assess the ROI of various initiatives than those that lack confidence. For example, 63% of more confident execs found infrastructure somewhat or very easy to calculate ROI for, versus 40% for those less confident. However, comparisons of other initiatives such as customer relationship management and security were less dramatic.
When asked to rate IT initiatives on the ease or difficulty of determining ROI and business value, the easiest were desktop systems (2.9 on a scale of 1 to 4), outsourcing (2.9) and e-commerce (2.7). The most difficult were knowledge management (2.0), CRM (2.2) and security (2.4).
Conclusion 05
Conclusion 05: Demand
While some IT executives look for extremely short time horizons for ROI on their projects, more than half will accept a maximum time horizon of two years or more. And expectations for the actual ROI delivered seem reasonable.
About a quarter of execs expect an ROI in a minimum of six months or less, though 23% don't use minimum periods to achieve ROI goals for IT investments. However, 62% will accept a maximum of two years or more before seeing ROI.
Respondents seem to have reasonable expectations for ROI. Only 25% of companies expect a 60% or higher return on their IT investments, and only 8% look for 100%.
More than three quarters of respondents either currently measure IT's contribution to strategic goals or plan to do so within the next year.
There's no question that IT execs are feeling greater pressure to prove ROI, and that many are attempting to do so. CIOs seeking to meet these demands should concentrate on developing the right ROI calculation methods. But which methods? Our recommendation: Take a page from those CIOs who feel most confident in their ROI calculations. As a rule, they subject a greater percentage of their projects to ROI analysis, and they measure ROI throughout the implementation of the project and on an ongoing basis after the project is completed. And they are much more likely to use such techniques as activity-based costing, economic value added, internal rate of return, and intellectual capital analysis. The result: They report significantly better returns on all of their IT investments.
How the survey was done: CIO Insight designed the ROI survey in partnership with Survey.com, a San Jose, Calif.-based supplier of custom research services. CIOs, chief technology officers, and vice presidents of information technology and services gathered from a number of sources, including third-party lists and other Ziff Davis Media publications, were invited to participate in the study by e-mail. The questions were posted on a password-protected Web site, and 404 qualified respondents replied from Jan. 8 to Jan. 14.

Look but don
When we get back home after dropping off the kids you ask me to take out the garbage. I say "It's not even half full." But you give me "the look" and I take it out anyway. When I get back, all the lights are off except one coming from up stairs. I follow the light up to our room and find you on the bed wearing a very sexy, very sheer nighty. I get excited and start toward you and you say, "STOP!" You say, "Were going to play a game. The rules are simple: you cannot touch me or the bed." "Really?" I say knowing full well that I am going to lose this game because I already want to do more than just touch you. "Also, you are not allowed to touch your cock," you say with an evil seductive look in your eyes. I don't think I've ever seen that evil seductive look in your eyes before. Come to think of it I don't think I've ever heard you say "cock." You start to un button your loosely fitting top and I start toward you to help and you say, "Look but don't touch!" You slowly pull your top down over your shoulder. You are enjoying teasing me too much. You move it down further and I think I can see your right breast. My eyes adjust to the light and I can definitely see your breast but I can also see your fingers making circles over it. Your movements are fluid and definite, like you have done this before. I am starting to get jealous because what you are doing is my job. You pull your top all the way down around your waist exposing your other beautiful breast. You begin massaging that one too. Once again, out of instinct, I move to help you take car of those lovely erect nipples. You put your hand up to let me know that I am not yet needed. You rub your breasts until they are both firm and both nipples are erect. I notice you are now moaning quietly. You lay down on your back and pull your nighty off over your legs. For the first time I realize that you are not wearing panties. You look at me and say, "I know you want to watch me play with myself. Tonight I am going to be naughty just for you." There is that evil seductive look in your eyes again. I want to say, "You are going to tease me like never before and it is going to drive me wild." But all I can manage is a nod.
You grin because you can see the glazed look in my eyes and you know I am under your spell. My cock, that has been standing up since you pulled your top over your shoulder, now begins to throb with growing anticipation. You lick your fingers and move them down between your legs. Slowly and methodically you begin to rub your pussy. You start to moan again. Quietly, at first but it gradually gets louder. I notice your hips are now moving in rhythm with your hands. You move from rubbing your whole pussy to just rubbing your clit. When your fingers touch it the first time you let out a gasp. Your hips and your fingers are starting to move faster but keep in time. Your moaning is now really getting me hot. You stop suddenly and reach over your shoulder to get something. A dildo, "Where did that come from?" I wondered but at the same time didn't really care. You put it in your mouth and move it in and out. I wonder if you are going to tease me further by making me watch you give it a blowjob. For the time you have forgotten I was there and are more concerned with just getting the dildo wet so you can use it on your pussy. You turn the dial to make it vibrate and rub the dildo over your pussy and moan loudly every time it touches your now swollen clit. You work the dildo inside your pussy and start slowly moving it in and out - in and out. You are using it so the dildo will rub your clit as it goes in but I can tell that it is not good enough. You sense I am about to come join you and tell me to stay. You start moving the dildo in and out faster and faster, and you are now using your other hand to massage your clit. Your hands and your hips are moving like crazy and your moaning keeps getting louder. I know you are in total ecstasy right now. Your bucking hips are pulling the sheets off the bed. I know your orgasm is coming soon and I can't wait. You let out a squeal and your body stiffens but you keep bucking your hips against the dildo which you are now pounding in and out of your pussy. The orgasm is just beginning. I want to be involved in it but I can seem to move, my eyes are fixed on your body writhing with pleasure. The orgasm climaxes and you start slowing down your movements to fully enjoy it. When its over you put the dildo aside and motion for me to come to you. "Now its your turn, " you say.
You roll over getting on your hands and knees and I enter you from behind. I seem to understand that I am to pick up where you left off so I begin to ram my cock in and out of your pussy. You immediately start moaning again confirming my intentions. You reach under and stroke my cock and balls before turning your attention back to your clit. I feel your body start to stiffen again, knowing that another orgasm is not far off. You remove your hand from your clit and start bucking your pussy hard against my cock. You arch your back and let out a long moan from a pleasure deep within you. The contracting of your pussy during your orgasm sparks a feeling in my groin and soon I am squirting my load deep inside you. We hold together until the orgasms stop then collapse on the bed.

My mother, who had Alzheimer's, was a resident of the skilled nursing area of the Mary Wade Home from September of 2005 until her death in August of 2009. The staff at the Mary Wade Home was great from the beginning. There was a sense that they enjoyed the residents. I felt that the staff really enjoyed my mother and that she was well taken care of.
When my mother's sister came to visit from Chicago with her husband, they noticed how the place felt. The good care was in the atmosphere and in the way visitors were welcomed. There was also a sense that the staff was well taken care of, which had a ripple effect.
Another aspect of the Mary Wade Home is the beautiful garden. My mother enjoyed many hours in the garden area.
When it was time to bring in hospice, the nurse suggested it and we were fortunate to be able to have hospice care brought in so she did not have to be moved. The staff was very accommodating to us at the end. I was able to spend the last night in an empty room across the hall and my mother's roommate was temporarily moved out of the room to give us privacy. My brother, husband, my Mom's long time private aid and I were with her at the end. We had decided to celebrate her life and toast her with her favorite cocktail. We did so and as soon as we were finished, she left peacefully. I feel fortunate that my Mom was able to spend her last years at the Mary Wade Home.

Review from Guidestar
I am always telling people that the Mary Wade Home is the best! My dad (Russell M. Smith) was there for the last 13 months of his life. He passed away October 6, 2008. My dad was admitted there with dementia, and one of us "kids" were there every day. I usually stopped in there 6 days a week. I had stopped in at all different times, from 6:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. and each time, every one of the staff members treated each and every resident as if the resident were part of their own family. From the Administrator to the office staff to the nursing staff, dietary, housekeeping and maintenance staff all displayed the utmost respect for the residents. The other thing I always tell people is that if I ever need long term skilled care, I hope I can get into Mary Wade.
One of the nurses there (Charise) once told me "We're (Mary Wade staff) not their real children, but they're like our own family and when we lose one, we hurt too". My dad loved it at Mary Wade too. On one of my dad's trips to the hospital ER (he was unresponsive), when he was feeling a bit better, and we had to choose to have him admitted or sent back to Mary Wade; my sister and I asked him "Dad, do you want to stay here a few days or go back to Mary Wade"? My dad replied "I want to go HOME to Mary Wade". That's how much like home it seemed to him. On his last trip to the hospital ER, he was declining, and again we had to make a choice. We had no doubts that the best choice was to let him go back to Mary Wade. We then were given the option to transfer him to the local Hospice. We said no. We wanted him to spend his last days in the presence of the people who had so lovingly cared for him.
As my dad declined, Mary Wade provided him with a special quilt to cover him, a floor lamp was brought in near his bed, to shield him from the sometimes harsh overhead lighting, and there at his bedside was a CD player, playing soothing music ever so softly. A special quilt square was hung outside his door. This was to let staff know he was in the dying process, so they would know to say their own "goodbye". We received the call in the wee hours of the morning that it was time to come, and had our last moments with him. I found out the next day, that after we left, one of the maintenance staff had gone in after we left, to say a prayer over our father. THAT is a prime example of all the staff there, caring - even when the family is not present.
In my fathers obituary, we made mention to thank "his other family, the staff of The Mary Wade Home" who took such excellent care of him. We later planted a Lilac tree in the courtyard garden that my father so enjoyed, and celebrated his life with a Thank you cake for the staff. I will continue to recommend the Mary Wade Home to anyone who is seeking the utmost in excellence of care for their loved ones. Respectfully submitted, Linn Bodle
My family and I will be forever grateful for the care the magnificent staff of the Mary Wade Home provided for my beloved father (Joseph Pruzinsky) who was a resident there from March of 2009 to January of 2010. When admitted to the Mary Wade Home my father was suffering from dementia as well as multiple medical problems, including a broken hip. Though my family and I had extensive experience with dear relatives being in nursing homes in the area, we were not familiar with the Mary Wade Home when we arrived there.
I now consider our time at the Mary Wade Home to be one of the greatest gifts we have ever received in our life. Our family was treated with the greatest kindness, compassion, and professionalism at every step of the way. The admission process, which can be stressful, was made particularly easy by Roseane, who showed us a profound level of thoughtfulness that set the stage for our entire stay there. On the day that my father died, we were blessed to be reminded of the deep and personal commitment that the staff of the Mary Wade Home make to their residents; they too experienced the sadness of his death. In between my dad's admission and his departure from Mary Wade he and our family experienced the highest possible quality of care and professionalism from nurses, doctors, physical therapists, recreational staff, maintenance and kitchen staff and, most profoundly, the certified nursing assistants. It is hard to express in words the depth of our gratitude for all of these individuals.
One of my family members or I visited my father most every day that he was a resident at the Mary Wade Home. Depending on our work schedule, we would visit at different times of the day; that is, on some days we would visit in the morning and on other days we would visit in the afternoon or evening. I mention this because we were always struck by the fact that whenever we were there that the staff was friendly, professional, and very clearly doing the best they could to take care of my father as well as the other residents. It was impressive how professional the staff was and it was deeply moving how thoughtful they were and how they created a loving, relaxed, clean, and safe environment. Despite the sadness of seeing my father decline, I nevertheless remember with great affection how the staff was so skilled at using humor and playfulness in just the right way at just the right moment.
It is important to me to stress that my family and I believe that our experience at the Mary Wade Home is also the experience of the other residents and families as well. We cannot, of course, speak for any other family. However, we do know that we witnessed, every time we were there, the same professionalism and compassion being offered to all other residents and families. Over the past year I have said to many people that I believe there is something very special about the Mary Wade Home and I am forever grateful for them being there to help us in the time of our greatest need. We have offered many prayers of gratitude and we will continue to do so for the rest of our days.

E-Sails Spinnaker Snuffers (Squeezers) are made with a tube of Knitted Polyester Flag Material (available in White only) which slides easily down over the sail material and allows the sail to drain/dry.
E-Sails Spinnaker Snuffers have a robust moulded fibreglass mouth and a continuous halyard fastened onto a strop at the mouth. The Sail is attached by it's Head ring inside the tube, to a webbing strap and shackle and the tube it then pulled down over the sail to 'douse' it.
The Spinnaker Halyard is fastened to the top of the Snuffer for use, so that the sail can be unsnuffed, then set and trimmed, by simply pulling on the Integral Halyard. This ideally is made off onto a mast cleat (or a similar location) whilst sailing.
The Integral continuous Halyard runs in a separate internal pocket (so it can't get tangled up with the sail).
Choose a Snuffer that is equal to the Luff Length of the Sail, or is shorter.
Snuffers work well with E-Sails Side Launch Bags!

Harvey Weinstein is convinced he is to blame for Quentin Tarantino's Oscar snub because he initially refused to send out DVD copies of Django Unchained to Academy Awards voters.
I told Quentin we'd probably pay the price at the Oscars, but it was the right way to see an epic period movie
The movie mogul, whose The Weinstein Company is behind the acclaimed Western, admits he was devastated when Tarantino failed to score a Best Director nod when the Oscars nominations were announced this month (Jan13).
The film picked up four other nominations and has a shot in the Best Picture category, but Weinstein feels the director missed out on recognition because of how the awards DVDs were distributed to Academy members.
He tells Deadline.com, "I don't want to use the word 'robbed,' but Quentin Tarantino not in the running for Best Director? He is one of the greatest directors of our time. Here's what I think happened on Django... We tried to show it to people (voters) in theatres, not on DVD. It's an epic movie and that man put his whole life and heart into this... and the idea of DVDs stopped me cold. And I stopped them. I wouldn't do it... I delayed them. I wanted people to see it on the big screen. "I told Quentin we'd probably pay the price at the Oscars, but it was the right way to see an epic period movie...
Eventually, we gave out the DVDs but we paid the price for being late.
We paid no price as far as the gigantic business the movie's doing.
It's the biggest of Quentin's career.
After we put our heart and soul into the movie, the Oscar campaign was secondary.
But make no mistake about it - we got five nominations including Best Picture, and we only had one week (before the voting deadline)". The moviemakers competing for the Best Director Oscar are Michael Haneke (Amour), Ang Lee (Life of Pi), David O. Russell (Silver Linings Playbook), Steven Spielberg (Lincoln) and Benh Zeitlin (Beasts of the Southern Wild). The winner will be announced during the Los Angeles prizegiving on 24 February (13).

Founding members Matthias Bossi (Skeleton Key, Sleepytime Gorilla Museum), Joel Hamilton (producer/engineer for BlakRoc, Pretty Lights), Carla Kihlstedt (Tin Hat Trio, Sleepytime Gorilla Museum) and Tony Maimone (Pere Ubu, Frank Black, Bob Mould) forge a sound both epic and intimate, empowering and devastating. Cinematic, symphonic landscapes give way to crumbling acoustic chamber ballads. Broken guitars and beautifully warped orchestras describe the ungraceful demise of boats, blast furnaces and bloated industries. Accounts of the failed adventures of tragic would-be heroes are given voice in the band's two previous critically-acclaimed releases. Their newest album serves as the final chapter in the bands "By Sea, By Land, By Air" trilogy. GARDEN OF FAINTING STARS gives dissonant sendoffs to the doomed travellers and early astronauts that plied the skies in a quest for the final frontier: Space. The imagined utopias that await them at the other end of their fantastical journeys inevitably give way to the grim realization which mankind has faced again and again: at every hopeful turn, commonplace realities await us. A vast and empty universe, stretching far beyond infinity, capable of containing the countless imaginary creatures, civilizations, and otherwise terrestrial impossibilities that inhabit our dreams, dies in the fluorescent lighting of the laundry soap aisle at WalMart."

ST. ALBERT — A priest best known for his quiet presence and caring nature has passed away.
Father John Nowakowski died Aug. 27 at Sturgeon Hospital in St. Albert. He was 79.
"He was a very dedicated priest, committed to the Knights of Columbus," said Mickey Casavant, a past state deputy for Alberta-Northwest Territories and former supreme warden for the order.
"He used to attend as many functions as he could, and was available for the Knights. We developed a lot of respect for him. If the Knights needed someone for Mass, Father John was always there."
Nowakowski was born July 18, 1932, the oldest of five on a farm near Vermilion. His family prayed together regularly, and he attended Mass weekly, making the eight-km drive each Sunday to St. Andrew's Church, north of town.
School played a key influence in his eventual decision to enter the priesthood. He attended school at Mary Lake, Rusylvia and Clandonald. The Sisters of St. Joseph's of London ran Clandonald High School. From them he learned more about the faith and was already discerning his religious life.
However, after high school graduation, he opted to become a teacher. At the University of Alberta he attained a teaching licence in one year and went to teach near Vermilion.
The idea of serving God as a priest stayed with him. In 1953, at age 21, he entered St. Joseph Seminary. He was ordained in Clandonald May 28, 1959 by Archbishop Anthony Jordan.
"He was very faithful to the Church in every way, faithful to his hospital ministry and faithful to the sick," said Father Leo Floyd, who was in the seminary with Nowakowski.
"He loved Clandonald and he was proud of being from the rural area of Alberta. He had a great respect for the land out there."
Floyd described his friend as a storyteller who remained connected to his home and family in Clandonald. He was proud of his roots and his family.
He watched the stock market closely, followed major league baseball avidly and never owned a new car, always driving around in an old clunker.
A two-month stint as assistant pastor at St. John the Evangelist Parish was Nowakowski's first assignment. He later served in Tofield and at Edmonton's Immaculate Heart Parish. He also faithfully served as chaplain at St. Joseph's Auxiliary Hospital.
Nowakowski found his call within his call in 1968, when he became chaplain of the Edmonton Auxiliary Hospital, where he spent the next 25 years. He cared for the sick and dying. By virtue of his faithfulness, commitment, dependability and gentle approach with people, the ministry defined him.
"The important thing for him was his fidelity to the Church, his ministry to the sick and the dying. He took on funerals that no one else wanted," said Floyd.
Nowakowski's typical day as chaplain began at 6:30 a.m. He would give Communion to the patients before saying Mass at the chapel and visiting with some patients. He was on call, day and night, to give the last rites to a dying person.
"He showed dedication in taking care of the sick and lonely and those who are isolated from the Church," said Floyd. "He never really had a parish. The hospital was his parish ministry."
Nowakowski retired from the hospital in 1993, and later went to live at the cathedral rectory. In 2009, the same year as the 50th anniversary of his priestly ordination, he moved to Youville Home in St. Albert. He had tremors from Parkinson's disease in his later years - something he never complained about.
"He was a very pleasant man to have around," Casavant told the WCR.
The priest was a certified graphoanalyst. He analyzed handwriting to determine a person's character traits. From only a 100-word sample scribbled on a sheet of paper, he was trained to discern creativity, emotional responsiveness and other qualities. He analyzed handwriting for the local police and the University of Alberta.
"He would be at functions and sitting around at the table he enjoyed handwriting analysis a lot," said Casavant. "People signed their names, and he'd analyze the signatures, and people were always intrigued by this."
A prayer vigil for Nowakowski was held Aug. 31 at Connelly-McKinley. His funeral was Sept. 1 at St. Joseph's Basilica.

My wife went to Aldi (a store selling pretty much only generic food) while I was in Las Vegas. She scored these Crescent Rolls, which I made last night to go with leftover spaghetti that I made Monday night. Bueller? Bueller? (I know, it's not spelled the same, but I laughed)
The admission badges that we got at DefCon this year are all electronic and completely programmable. The key? You had to solder your own USB port onto it first. I did, and it worked, but it was kind of a sloppy job. I decided to clean up the solder job last night. Yes, I use butane instead of electricity when I solder electronics. Call me paranoid.
When you hook it up to your computer, you can see a console log of what the badge's on-board program is doing. This isn't like anything I've ever seen before. I love it.
The badge is powered by a Freescale JM60 microprocessor, includes an SD Card reader (on back), 8 LEDs as well as an IR transmitter and receiver. With the built-in program, it will send files from your SD card to other badges via IR, or it can be used as a TV-B-Gone, transmitting all the known TV power-off codes from its IR LED. I'm probably going to spend a lot of time in the next few weeks figuring out what kind of reprogramming I can do.

|non-portable (class-associated types)
|Edward Kmett <email@example.com>
Monoidal category is a category with an associated biendofunctor that has an identity,
which satisfies Mac Lane''s pentagonal and triangular coherence conditions
Technically we usually say that category is
Monoidal, but since
most interesting categories in our world have multiple candidate bifunctors that you can
use to enrich their structure, we choose here to think of the bifunctor as being
monoidal. This lets us reuse the same
Bifunctor over different categories without
painful newtype wrapping.
- type family Id k p :: *
- class Associative k p => Monoidal k p where
- class Disassociative k p => Comonoidal k p where
Denotes that we have some reasonable notion of
Identity for a particular
Bifunctor in this
Category. This
notion is currently used by both
Monoidal and
class Associative k p => Monoidal k p whereSource
A monoidal category.
idl and
idr are traditionally denoted lambda and rho
the triangle identity holds:
first idr = second idl . associate second idl = first idr . associate
class Disassociative k p => Comonoidal k p whereSource
A comonoidal category satisfies the dual form of the triangle identities
first idr = disassociate . second idl second idl = disassociate . first idr
This type class is also (ab)used for the inverse operations needed for a strict (co)monoidal category.
A strict (co)monoidal category is one that is both
Monoidal and
Comonoidal and satisfies the following laws:
idr . coidr = id idl . coidl = id coidl . idl = id coidr . idr = id

Lemon-Almond Cake with Macerated Strawberries
No one wants to bake when it's hot out. Thankfully, this lemon-almond cake from The Seasonal Baker: Easy Recipes From My Home Kitchen To Make Year-Round can be made days ahead of time; its use of oil instead of butter gives it a longer shelf life. Keep the berries cold and the cake warm, and you've got a glorious dessert. Cake sandwich, anyone?
Tips: The kind of oil you use will affect the finished product's flavor. If you don't want to taste the olive oil, use a blend of olive and canola. But a fruity extra-virgin does go well with lemon and strawberry. And if you're making this late at night when it's finally cooled down but you find yourself out of buttermilk, simply stir a tablespoon of vinegar into a cup of milk.
Tweaks: The amount of lemon juice suggested might leave some wanting; add another half-tablespoon if more of a zesty flavor is what you're after. And if you're on the other side of the fence, reduce the amount.

- Yield:makes one 10-inch cake
- Active time: 1 hour
- Total time:1 hour, plus 2 hours' macerating time
- For the Cake
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1 teaspoon coarse salt
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs, at room temperature
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 8 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 teaspoons pure almond extract
- Grated zest of 1 lemon
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice (from 1 lemon)
- 1 tablespoon confectioner's sugar, for dusting
- For the Strawberries
- 1 pint fresh strawberries, hulled and thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar, or more as needed
- 1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice (from 1 lemon)
Place the oven rack in the lower third of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Coat the bottom and sides of a 9 by 2-inch cake pan with softened butter. Line the bottom with a parchment round. Coat the parchment and the sides of the pan again with softened butter; set aside.
To make the cake: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, almond flour, salt, and baking soda; set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the sugar and eggs. Whisk in the buttermilk, olive oil, almond extract, and lemon zest and juice. Add the buttermilk mixture to the flour mixture and whisk until the flours have been absorbed.
Scrape the batter into the prepared pan. Place on a baking sheet and bake, rotating the sheet about two-thirds of the way through the baking time, until a tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool for 10 minutes. Turn the cake out of the pan, then invert so that the rounded side is up. Let cool completely.
To macerate the strawberries: In a small bowl, comine the sliced strawberries with the sugar and lemon juice. Chill for 2 hours, stirring every now and then. After about 1 hour, taste the berries, and if they are not sweet enough, add another teaspoon of sugar.
Sift the confectioner's sugar over the top of the cooled cake. Cut into wedges and serve with a spoonful of the strawberries.

Turning Tragedy into Triumph
Related Story
FORT LEONARD WOOD - When Alyssa Marie Rutherford was born in 2009, she weighed just one pound and had Down Syndrome. She passed away just 11 days after her birth.
After her daughter's passing, Danielle Rutherford found comfort in listening to one song over and over: "Hold my Heart" by Tenth Avenue North.
So, she wrote the band to ask if she could use the song to help other families hold on a little longer.
"It reminded us even though in this situation that God loves us and we can be a light to others in the horrible situation," Rutherford said.
The Rutherfords started a foundation called Hold my Heart to provide gift cards, diapers, toys, ministry and more to families with seriously ill babies.
Rutherford says starting this foundation allows her and her husband to remember her and still be her parents

Zoetis PeopleFirst™ Learning Management Portal expands training
FLORHAM PARK, N.J., Sept. 26, 2013 — Dairy and beef cattle operations looking for help training employees can benefit from the newest service offered by PeopleFirst™ Human Capital Solutions from Zoetis. The Learning Management Portal is available online to give producers the tools and curriculum they need to properly train and manage employees, ensuring a safe, more effective and productive business long term.
New employees who join an operation need proper training and education for a smooth transition into the workplace — also known as onboarding. And veteran employees need refreshers on animal handling and other operating procedures. While finding time in a busy work day to train employees is difficult, it is essential to improve business performance and reduce operational risk. Without training, the business can suffer.
"Onboarding new employees is one of the most vital components of any operation," said Nicolas Buttars, PeopleFirst business solutions manager for Zoetis. "Proper onboarding programs can help reduce an operation's risk by helping all employees better understand and comply with company, community and regulatory standards for animal safety, care and wellness. It also drives employee perceptions and employee engagement. Good onboarding makes employees more likely to stay, to be engaged and be more productive for you and your business."
Onboarding programs that increase employee engagement can boost performance by 20% and reduce the probability of departure by 87%, according to the Human Resources Corporate Leadership Council. When an employee leaves, businesses can expect to pay up to 150% of the employee's salary to cover the cost of finding and training a replacement. For business owners, there is a clear financial incentive to ensure proper onboarding.
With assistance from online training, employers have the convenience to implement proper guidance without disrupting work efficiency. The PeopleFirstLearning Management Portal assures producers in animal agriculture that their employees are gaining necessary insight on industry and operational practices and regulatory standards from day one. The interactive portal and curriculum allow employees to train online when their schedules allow. The portal features bilingual learning modules and opportunities for continuous education on subjects such as cattle anatomy, feeding and employee safety.
"It is a big benefit to have employees with knowledge of the industry they are working in," Buttars said. "Through interactive training modules and specialized subjects, they are receiving the best information possible about the industry and individual operation."
The online curriculum also allows employers to track employee learning progress to guarantee efficiency and accountability while reducing training costs. It frees up the time of supervisors and minimizes the operation's risk. By tracking progress, employers can see when courses are completed and hold employees accountable for improving animal care and compliance.
"There is little time for error in animal agriculture operations," Buttars said. "The Learning Management Portal creates flexibility for employers and employees with a cost-effective way to properly train employees. Proper training means increased engagement and productivity from employees, and reduced risk for the employer."

"Books, including Blurb books, were always kind of after the fact," said Eileen Gittins, CEO of Blurb, the fast-growing POD self-publishing platform. "You created the content, then after the fact you made the book. We're bringing bookmaking into the mobile world. While you're at the concert, on the subway home, from your phone, you can bring your photos into Blurb, hit print and you'll get your book in about a week. Real-time." Sitting in her San Francisco office, Gittins laughed easily and seemed perpetually amused by her own success. Relaxed, funny, and animated, Gittins talked with PW about the online platform that lets anyone create, print, and deliver a well-designed, high-quality, illustrated POD book in about a week.
PW visited to profile Gittins, but was also invited to be part of BlurbU, a one-day presentation to the assembled Blurb staff that featured a number of talented book-related presenters, held to highlight both the transformation of the book market and the creative use of the Blurb platform by its users.
Blurb (Blurb.com) is aimed at disrupting the world of print publishing, essentially moving the analog world of paper and print titles into the digital world of real-time, full-color, print-on-demand publishing with a focus on photographs, or, as Gittins described it, "illustrated books for the rest of us." Launched in 2004 after Gittins quit her paying job (her husband gave her a year to make Blurb work and she made the deadline) and raised $2 million in investment money to launch the company, Blurb got off to a fast start, generating $1 million in revenue in the last six months of 2006. Blurb now has about 115 employees and substantial growth in revenue, though Gittins declined to give a precise figure. Blurb produced nearly two million print books in 2013 in seven languages and shipped them to 75 countries on five continents. In addition, the company produced 250,000 e-books, a service Blurb has offered for only a little over a year.
When Gittins says real-time, she means it. Earlier this year Blurb inked an exclusive deal that put Blurb software on the Galaxy S4, Samsung's hot new smartphone, that lets the user create a Blurb photo book right from the phone (and the pictures taken with it). (Blurb expects to offer the service on other platforms when the deal is up.) The company is also ramping up its enterprise efforts to attract more attention from companies and institutions (among them Nike, Pixar, and the Nature Conservancy) that, Gittins discovered, were using Blurb to quickly create good-looking books for a variety of internal uses, including annual reports, and marketing and promotional uses. The company is even looking to the traditional book market and considering broader distribution for some of its titles.
Gittins describes the Blurb platform as "lean publishing"—the ability to "personalize and create a book of one, electronic or print; we're flexible, buy one of each!" she said. Gittins is out to "connect the old with the new," keeping print books relevant by offering consumers an easy-to-use set of online tools that lets everyone—be they experienced book designers or newbies with vacation photos— upload pictures and produce a well-designed, crafted print books or e-books. Consumers can open free Blurb accounts, download Blurb's free BookSmart software or the InDesign or Lightroom plug-ins (Blurb is embedded in Adobe's design and photo management software via a partnership with the software developer), and follow the instructions for creating a book.
Veteran designers can create whatever layouts they need in InDesign; for newbies its all drag and drop with the help of interactive templates (with various sizes and layouts for images and text) and instructional videos. Once the layout is completed and the book ordered, the printed book, hardcover or paperback—Blurb has deals with a network of six POD printers based in the U.S. and overseas—can be delivered in a week to 10 days. Quality is paramount to Blurb—Gittins claims the color is so good in Blurb books that book designers are making them to send to Chinese printers instead of page proofs.
The Blurb process for making a book is entirely free to use until a book is ordered, and a book can be produced for as little as $3.99. Blurb creators can also sell their books via the Blurb bookstore and receive 100% of the price.
A "serial entrepreneur," Blurb is Gittins's fourth startup. In addition to working as an executive for Kodak, she directed a variety of software-focused tech startups before the Internet bubble collapse of 2000, after which she went back to her first creative love, photography, and began thinking about a new kind of print publishing model. "I decided I wanted to make a book," she said, thinking, "how hard could that be?" It turned out to be very hard—in 2002 there was nothing like Blurb.
She went back to her former tech startup colleagues with the notion that "there needs to be a way for anyone to create a book that looks just as professional as what you can buy in a bookstore, except you only have to print one copy." The combination of her long experience as a tech entrepreneur, the disruptive potential of Blurb on publishing, a business plan that emphasized revenue—unusual in the early days of aggregating eyeballs—and a business model in which, as she said, "we can make money only producing one book," attracted investors.
Gittins said Blurb users are divided into personal publishing (40%, books not intended for sale); author publishing (30%, books intended for sale beyond friends and family); and enterprise publishing (30%, books produced by companies for internal needs), and she said the latter two categories are on the rise. She's looking to add more prose "author" titles—"wordies," as they're called around Blurb—especially illustrated prose, including travel, cookbooks, and children's books, as well as more poetry, memoirs, and fiction. Indeed, she said the economics of printing books on Blurb is attracting the attention of conventional publishers who are looking into partnerships. International growth is important—about 50% of Blurb revenues are from outside the U.S. "Korea is huge for English-language books," she said.
Screen technology—with full color, graphics, photos, and design—along with the economics of printing are redefining what a book can be, Gittins said, while maintaining everything else about them that we love. New technology, she explained, often highlights the best aspects of the old tech. "When engines came along, sailboats didn't go away, but it was nice having motors if you needed to get somewhere fast." A physical book, she said, "is like the gift of time, holding a book, turning the page at your own pace, that isn't going away any time soon."

Garrett Wolfe isn't sure how game days will change for him. He knows practices already have. "I've gotten more reps," the rookie running back said after Wednesday's practice, the Chicago Bears' first without injured starter Cedric Benson. "In recent weeks, I've been getting more reps, and that's something I've been excited about.
Garrett Wolfe isn't sure how game days will change for him. He knows practices already have. "I've gotten more reps," the rookie running back said after Wednesday's practice, the Chicago Bears' first without injured starter Cedric Benson. "In recent weeks, I've been getting more reps, and that's something I've been excited about. "I'm excited to go out there and contribute when called upon. That's what I plan on doing." When, and for how long, we'll see. Offensive coordinator Ron Turner tentatively plans to spell new starter Adrian Peterson with Wolfe the way he had Peterson sub in for Benson, who broke his left leg Sunday against Denver and is out for the season. That means expect to see Wolfe in either the third or fourth series. Regardless, Wolfe, the former Northern Illinois star, has moved up the depth chart. "I'm very excited," said Wolfe, obviously an excitable guy. He's also more comfortable, now that his rookie season is starting to be longer than a typical college year. "That's something that only comes from repetitions in practice," he said. "I think I've been improving on a week to week basis, and that's all you can ask." You can ask Turner. "I'm looking forward to it," he said of being able to see more of Wolfe. "He has some speed and quickness. He hasn't really had a chance to play a lot." Wolfe has nine carries for 31 yards, 25 coming at the end of the first half against the Broncos. That padded Wolfe's stats but didn't do much for his confidence. "I think people are giving me a little too much credit," he said. "That's what's supposed to happen. It's the last seconds of the half, they have three D-linemen, I'm supposed to have a 25-yard run on that. So that was nothing special." What Wolfe needs to improve on hasn't changed. "Just knowing what everyone else is doing, as far as who's blocking whom, so I can become a better football player and make better cuts and things like that in the run game," he said. "My biggest concern in the run game is breaking tackles and doing more things after the line of scrimmage. "I'm confident, but I have to make sure my teammates are confident and that everyone believes in me. If they don't, there's not going to be that much of an opportunity." While Wolfe has waited months for his promotion, Peterson has waited a lot longer. "Six years," he said with a smile. "I mean, honestly, six years. I'm not going to try to do anything special. It's the same role; I'm just starting the game and playing a role." Peterson has 189 yards rushing on 52 carries (3.6 average), along with career highs in catches (33), yards (253) and long (37). "I don't know if you'll see anything you don't now," Turner said of Peterson. "He's a solid, steady back who's going to be there and probably get better as the game goes on." Head coach Lovie Smith said Peterson brings "the total package." "Being a third-down back all of the season for us, that part we've seen him in that role," he said. "But just to see him now, he's had flashes where he has carried the football and looked good doing it. "But every running back wants to be the lead guy, and now he's getting an opportunity to do that. Once you have success in a limited role, guys are supposed to get an opportunity to carry more of the load. He's getting his chance." Quarterback Rex Grossman doesn't expect much to change with Benson absent. "Maybe a little bit more Garrett Wolfe out of necessity," he said. "But our offense is going to pretty much have the same type of plays and the same thought process." Reed Schreck is the NFL writer for the Rockford Register Star.

Who are they?
Hawa and Edythe are unique and bewildering women who appear quite mysterious... Possibly because they are secretive, or because their outside appearance contrasts sharply with their inner nature; or perhaps this enigmatic air is due to their original and non-conformist attitude. They are incredibly charming and one could easily assume that they are shallow or fickle, when in reality they are profound, thoughtful and inclined to introspection. It´s true that there is a striking difference between their apparently non-stop activity and their search for genuineness, accompanied by a need for personal reflection... In actual fact, they are excessively nervous and this tension could be expressed by a hectic schedule and a high level of activity. This could lead them to become dissipated and spread themselves too thinly, as if they wanted to embrace everything at once by seizing all of the opportunities that life presents them with. Indeed, they could be capable of impulsive behaviour if they allow their emotions free reign or their curiosity to get the better of them, while at other times they can be very level-headed. Paradoxically, haste and reflection co-exist as part of their cyclothymic personality. When times are prosperous and they feel confident, they are capable of the noblest deeds, revealing themselves to be charming, productive and witty. However if the ambiance isn´t great, they are likely to become self-contained, solitary and almost asocial. Furthermore, they are fascinated by anything that is out of the ordinary, original, unheard of or heterodox, and could be inclined to take the road less travelled. As children, Hawa and Edythe could be lively and spontaneous little girls who are into everything (especially if they were born on a 5th, 14th, 23rd, in May, or if their life Path Number is 5); or much more introverted, secretive, discreet, academically gifted and inclined to ponder the great mysteries of existence (particularly if they were born on a 7th, 16th, 25th, in July, or if they have a life Path Number of 7). They are nevertheless dependent on their affective environment and will only make an effort if they are sure it will please their parents or their teacher - especially if they feel an affinity with the latter... With their fertile imagination and highly developed intuition, they are subject to sudden surges of euphoria or anger which tend to be followed by feelings of despondency. Their parents should therefore make sure that harmony prevails in the family home and provide them with plenty of encouragement, love and affection.
What do they like?
With their master number 11, Hawa and Edythe could be strongly drawn to noble causes - of a humanitarian nature, for example; and take an interest in psychology, astrology, graphology, religion or politics, with utopian aspirations. However they could equally decide to settle for a life of day-dreams, by living at the vibrational level of the number 2, which are less intense. In this case they are likely to seek fulfilment through their personal and romantic relationships, and possess an acute sense of friendship. Their love life is extremely important to them, and they reveal themselves to be conciliatory, accommodating, sensitive and dependable when in a relationship. However they often tend to feel misunderstood or unloved and can be inclined to solitude; but is this because they are more attentive to others´ needs than their own, or because their modesty and reserve combined with their private and unsociable nature are confusing to others?

What do they do?
Since they are quite unconventional, they are likely to choose a career that is out of the ordinary: at the cutting edge or of a very specialized nature for example, whether it be of a technical or scientific (information technology) character or connected with fashion; it will probably be varied and mobile. Otherwise, occupations in connection with sales and marketing, travel, advertising, journalism or dance could appeal to them... They are equally likely to take an interest in the social sciences or activities involving the giving of advice.
